I laugh especially hard when people complain about macros being "cringy". These people seriously must lead very boring lives. I imagine watching a movie must be very tedious for them lol.
I am the same way. I don't RP and when ppl add text and esp sound effects to needless things annoying. Like when I enter a dungeon and get a wall of text for protect I groan and dislike the healer immediately. And if you have them for esuna, shields and everything else but cures, which I have seen more than once, you will get a vote dismiss since blisting you isn't an option. /echo its really not that hard /endrant

But something like raise is great to have text with because idk how many times I wasted a swiftcast because the other healer just swift raises without a peep, when I could have used mine moments later to get someone else up.

And since its a needed macro a lil flavor can be fun, esp if you keep it short, sweet and silent.
Wall of text macros are never good and will be just flat out ignored and sounds are needless, it just tells me you are aiming to annoy.
However if you get annoyed by something short, sweet and silent it may just be that stick you sit on while you play.

Mine go...

Ast "It seems your death was not in the cards. Ascend <t>!"
Whm "It's a nice day for a white raising. Start again, <t>"
Smn "Resurrecting <t>. You are my egi now.
